Gael Force
Gael Force is the official student spirit club of the Saint Mary's Gaels.
Created in 2001, it has quickly grown into the largest student organization on campus. Nearly two-thirds of the entire undergraduate population at Saint Mary's are members of Gael Force. The club plays a vital role in the success of our athletic teams. Gael Force's support and enthusiasm has made Saint Mary's one of the toughest places to play on the West Coast.
A few seasons ago Davidson coach Bob McKillop had this to say about the McKeon Pavilion atmosphere: "It just blows my mind that they have this kind of crowd. This is very similar to [Duke's] Cameron [Indoor Stadium] in terms of the noise level, the heat, the intensity, the passion. Saint Mary's deserves credit for having a crowd that's that supportive."
